Chilaquiles

I had a bunch of corn tortillas leftover from making enchiladas the other night, so I decided to use them to make chilaquiles for dinner yesterday. I thought that I’d made chilaquiles before, but as it turns out, I hadn’t. … Continue reading

Happy (Belated) New Year! Even though we’re already a couple of weeks in, I haven’t had time to write recently–I just moved to Washington, D.C., and this is my first post from my new apartment. I still can’t believe I’m … Continue reading

Winter in Chicago (and ways I’ve cooked up to tolerate it)
